The Good Luck of Right Now

by Matthew Quick
Hennepin County Library hardcover 284
genre: realistic fiction

Bartholomew Neil - 38, unemployed, has taken care of his mother until her recent death from cancer, odd, somehow both intelligent and moronic . . . , gentle, timid

Father McNamee

Wendy - therapist

Arnie - "group" therapy guy with the yellow room

Max - cat lover who uses the F word incessantly

Girlbrarian - Elizabeth, Max's sister,

Richard Gere - entire book is written in letters to him

This was amazing and worth reading. I don't have time to blog now. I'd like to read more of Quick's work, both the YA and Silver Linings Playbook. He's an intriguing author!
